Sirens outside the Stade de France. There have been reports of a robbery. :dielaugh:

But no Ribery.

Seven is a cheat.He used a double account named BibleSalesman to gain access to the forum.

Can we agree on this?

We missed him and were never lucky enough to catch him when he was online

 

[The Curr]

then so is nedved, del piero, chiellini, camo etc and prolly every player thats ever donned the black and white

Footballers cheat.

Brilliant. This page is bookmarked.

Now all you need to do is wait a Juve player to deliberately stop the ball with his hand, Juve to score and the "cheater" to start celebrating like crazy.

Good luck with that

Ahmed didn't say anything about diving or other methods of cheating. He was talking about "doing the same thing Henry did".

oh please no not another lawyer whats the difference between handling the ball to prevent a goal and one to score one?

I would appreciate it if you quoted my post that say otherwise. Bring me quotes where i denied that the Irish were hard done by. Bring me a quote where i denied that Henry cheated, or that France deserved to go through.

Tbh, I can't even be bothered, it's late here and I cba to fiddle around searching fo it on my iPod just to prove your point, I answered your question so what else do you want, it doesn't matter who did it, we can agree it's an injustice.

Footballers cheat.

most footballers will do anything to win, all footballers will do anything to go to the world cup

 

[Fred]

no need bro, you make plenty of sense and i agree with all you say

Thanks, coming from you that is a huge compliment

Thats nonsense. Cheating is cheating, and any form of cheating that results in scoring a goal and changing the outcome of a game should be considered "doing the same as Henry did".

I would do anything to go to the world cup and represent my country, I don't think anybody here can say they wouldn't

Anything? Are you absolutely sure about that?

 

[bianconero]

He may have handled the ball, but it took great skill to pass it across the face of the goal with the outside of his boot.

I agree. That's why i'd call Henry a cheater and admit that in his place, i'd have done exactly the same thing.

I don't even blame Henry for doing it, because I know that with a WC at stake, most of the players, at least the more intelligent ones, with good reflexes, would have done the same.

But i still feel awful for the team that missed out on something as big as the WC due to his cheating. I feel really awful.
As i said to a friend, I went through 3 lost CL finals with Juve, a semifinal defeat at the world cup with Croatia, a 120 minute goal from Turkey in 2008...but i can't even imagine how the Irish feel because Juve and Croatia lost fair and square, while this one was different.

Actually, in light of this post I would like to change my answer to almost anything

 

[Fred]

Yup, its terrible missing out on the WC this way.

Stephen Ireland must be the exception that proves the rule.

Dude i was planning to have a party if france failed to qualify I feel for the irish but that unfortunately is very much part of football and its easier for me to say it since i am not irish of course lol

touche, you re talking about not playing for england right?

 

[X Æ A-12]

With a last name like his own that is understandable

What? No. He's Irish. He has chosen not to play international football.
